#1 Searching for TRIPLEX logos

Hello,

I probably should introduce myself - I am a British sports car fan and have the privilege to own 2 Jaguars, one of them an S1 FHC I managed to buy recently.

However, I have xk120 for some years now, and have been doing research on TRIPLEX logos.
I have '50ies pretty well covered, but I am missing logos
from '65 and later.
Would anyone with original windscreen (and possibly boot
lid or side glass) be kind enough to take a photo of the
logo and send it over to me?

I will forward all photos to David so they can be posted on the Factory Fit thread.

I would be much obliged..

Hi Tadek,

Yes, the rear hatch glass is heated and original.

Unfortunately my front windscreen is not original and was replaced in 2000.
